YouTube will auto-flag significant photorealistic AI videos
YouTube announced it will automatically detect AI-generated content on its platform and flag this information to viewers. This new policy reverses the company's previous approach, which relied on creators to self-report the use of generative AI tools. The Google-owned company will apply a label when its systems detect significant photorealistic AI use if a creator has not specified its use.
